ABSTRACT:
A wireless communication system for a vehicle includes a global positioning system operable to determine a current geographical location of the vehicle and a current directional heading of the vehicle. Data useful to the driver of the vehicle that is relevant to at least one of the current geographical location of the vehicle and the current directional heading of the vehicle is carried from an external provider to the vehicle via a wireless communication link. The data is wirelessly communicated from the external provider to the vehicle responsive to at least one of (a) location of the vehicle, (b) identity of the vehicle and (c) directional heading of the vehicle. The data is at least in part customized to at least one of the current geographic location of the vehicle and the current directional heading of the vehicle.
